This came up last year, and again recently. The consensus came through to
add them, and recently I believe I was nominated to put together a patch.
I've just not been able to abrogate my other responsibilities long enough
to break my build environment and set up a copy of HEAD and concoct a
patch. ;)
The instances really have to live in Data.Foldable and Data.Traversable
with the Foldable and Traversable classes otherwise you get messy orphan
issues.
